What’s New: New in 2010, Hyundai’s rear-drive ponycar wannabe gets an extensive freshening up as an early 2013 model. Revisions include front and rear styling, a redesigned dashboard, electroluminescent gauges, and upgraded telematics. More importantly, it gets more power. With a new scroll-type turbocharger and bigger intercooler, the basic 2.0-liter turbo gets an increase from 210 hp and 223 lb-ft to 274 and 275, respectively. Similarly, direct injection gives the optional 3.8-liter V6 348 hp and 295 lb-ft, up from 306 and 266. The 8-speed automatic option is also new, but it’s the ponies are the key to the Genesis garnering some ponycar, cred and they make the Hyundai a stronger player.
